Muslim Job Support in Birmingham
Last updated 21 May 2026
Birmingham's Muslim community has a fast-growing professional layer — NHS at QE and Heartlands, civil service in the Birmingham hub, accountancy, law, education. This page connects Birmingham Muslims to mentors from that layer.
About Birmingham's Muslim community
Birmingham has around 342,000 Muslims (29.9% of the city, 2021 census) — the largest proportional Muslim population of any English core city.
Birmingham's Muslim community is densely concentrated in inner-east wards and historically Mirpuri Kashmiri, with growing Somali, Yemeni and Pashto-speaking populations. The mosque network here is one of the most organised in the country.
